A fun thriller that is hard to . . . Ok, I was going to say "Put down", but that doesn't really work for eBooks does it?

So how would you phrase the 'unputtadownable' quality of an eBook?

Sounds interesting, but it's above my price point, sorry, a book by any of my favorite authors, I'd hesitate at that price. For an author I've never read, not happening. But, I'll put it in my wishlist for the future.

Funny thing, when I searched for it using Inkmesh and addall, both reported no matches even though BN, Sony and Amazon all have it.

Michael Harvey's "The Chicago Way", Michael Kelly Detective Series Book 1. This is one of those good marketing strategies, the book is $1.99. I'm enjoying the book which means I'll probably buy the other 3 eventually.

I have been reading Angelology for a little while, taking my time with it. What an amazing read. It is a different genre than I typically follow - but Wow, am I glad I tried it. I had picked it up at the $9.99 price point. I had read some reviews where it talked about the ending of the book drifting away, but I did not feel that way at all. I actually enjoyed the build up, and twists at the end of the book-I was very very happy with this book and will probably read it again down the line a few years.

Cell phone (Mobipocket from the library): Just starting Cat and Mouse by James Patterson.

Audiobook in the car: Just After Sunset by Stephen King

Audiobook in the house: An Echo in the Bone (#7 of the Outlander series) by Diana Gabaldon

Nook: (Umm, do I have to tell? I'm actually embarrassed to admit this one!) All-American Girl by Meg Cabot. Yes, a teen book.

See, the problem is that 10 days ago, I put a hold on Grisham's The Partner through the library. I know that this library only checks out books for 14 days and I know that I am the only person on the wait list. So I know I will be getting the email within the next few days that says The Partner is ready. Until then, I keep checking out short fluff books just to keep me entertained, but since they only take about a day or two for me to read, it won't cut into my 14-day limit that I will have once The Partner becomes available.

Oh hush. My wrinkles and my graying hair might not indicate that I'm a teenager, but I still act like one!

So, you finished Outlander. Did you like it enough to continue the series? It's one of the very few books I've read several times. I can see how not everyone would like it...but I count it as one of my favorites. The next book in the series is Dragonfly in Amber.

Either name works.

I have Dragonfly in Amner on hold at the library. I did enjoy Outlander, though I don't think I'm going to by the series right now. I already own too many books that I still need to read!

I also read the Outlander series and enjoyed it. However, I am having a hard time completing Echo in the Bone

I really struggled with the first hundred pages or so. It just seemed to start out so freakin' slow. Since Nallia is still gonna read the rest of the series (I'll force her!!) I won't spoil anything. But it does get better. it's still not one of my favorite books of hers, but I gotta read it just to know what is happening. I'm on disc 14 of 40, so I'm not even halfway through it. My mom read Echo just before I did and she kept saying "you're not going to believe all that has happened!" in the second half of the book, so I know it's gonna really get good.

There are a ton of books that I've always meant to read but just never got around to or I couldn't find the paperback any more, etc. One of the great things about nook is that I can now go back and read these great books!!! I love my nook. After Ender, I plan on reading:

Like a lot of other's I just read The Dark Tide by Andrew Gross. I have to say I was very disappointed. It was boring and the writing just wasn't very good. I'm surprised this same author has a best seller to his name. Something must have gone wrong when he wrote this one.

I have always wanted to read the enders saga... that is on my list for hopefully sometime this summer!

Unfortunately, the only thing I'm reading lately is a bunch of boring psychiatric medication notes on the computer screen. Why, oh why, must I be forced to actually work for a living? It seriously cuts into my reading time!

I've had Grisham's The Partner for almost a week. It's not a very big book, and I'm still only on page 110 (so about one-third of the way through). It's very interesting and I'm loving it, but between preparing for a graduation party, trying desperately to clean the house, and get my work caught up, I'm lucky if I can squeeze in 20 pages a day. Ugh.

Was looking for something fun to read and stumbled upon this thread and saw your post of the two books above. I completely judged them by their covers (are you allowed to do that?) and downloaded the free sample of Lamentation to my Nook and liked it a lot. Just bought it and hope it is a good one. Thanks for the idea.

Thanks again for mentioning these books. Just finished the first one and it was a great book. The characters seemed really familiar which made the story very comfortable to read. Almost reminded me of characters from Lord of the Rings. Also, was really surprised to find that this was his first novel. The guy has some real skills and I look forward to the 2nd book and anything else he writes.

I have been a Stephen King fan for a long time and always wanted to read this. I decided to read the uncut version. I am about halfway through and well worth the read.

Me, too!! I have one huge double bookcase that is just filled with nothing but King first editions and limited editions. Although I am not a fan of horror, Stephen King's storytelling and characterization makes me tolerate the few books with horror just because I know I'll fall in love with the characters. The Stand is King's best, in my opinion. The "cut" (not abridged, just heavily back in 1978 by his publisher/editor because they didn't think he was a popular enough author to be able to sell a huge book) version has not been available since the "uncut" version became available in 1990. I read the uncut version first, then listened to the 1978 version on audio.

Just finished Sag Harbor and now I'm blowing through Columbine . The former a great great summer read and the later is shaping up to be a classic work of non-fiction. Both titles compliments of my local public ebook library and overdrive.com!

I just finished #1 Ladies Detective Agency which was the week one free book with the code. It was pretty good. Now I am reading journey to the center of the earth. It is the free version from B&N. It has some problems. Sometimes the words go to far off to the side so you can't see them all. It is still a good book though.

I just finished the second book in Nora Robert's Daring to Dream Trilogy, and I looked for the third book and couldn't find it. It is not an ebook even though the first two books are ebooks (really doesn't make sense to have the first two and not the third).

I love her books and especially the series as she really develops her characters and by the end of the series, it is sometimes sad to end the story.

When GREEN starts, it picks up where book 3 ( WHITE) left off. But is written in such a way that it ends where book 1 (BLACK) picks up. What it is basically about is the main character travels back and forth in time in a 2000 yr span.

I actually purchased GREEN as a DTB before I bought my NOOK. The 1st book I bought for my neek was

But only paid $9.99 for it. BN put the price up when the Agency 5 did their thing, although this is not an Agency 5 book. I decided that I wanted to read teh series in the order they were written, that is why I am reading GREEN last instead of 1st.

Here is the overview from the BN web site:

Dekker's prequel/sequel to his "Circle" trilogy (Black, Red, and White) is an apocalyptic, spellbinding thriller set 2000 years in the future. Earth as we know it has been destroyed. Thomas Hunter, who time-traveled to the future, discovers that his son has joined up with the dark forces. VERDICT Dekker continues to write shocking stories that revolve around the war between good and evil in our hearts. His myriad fans will want this suspenseful, larger-than-life visionary novel, which will also appeal to readers who enjoy Dean Koontz and Stephen King.

a little embarassed.... call it a midlife crisis but been reading some Claire thompson...... the best one yet is "Obsessed". Love the ending.. so not into this kind of thingand thank god for ebooks... now I don't have to be embarassed to bring it to the counter for purchase

I just finished Deep Shadow by Randy Wayne White and I couldn't put it down. I actually just did a search at the library for Florida Keys because I was looking for a tropical mystery and I came up with this book and it was actually very entertaining.

I just finished Paradise Park by Allegra Goodman. I loved this book!!! It is about a woman's search for God and for herself over 20 years beginning in the 1970's. She travels to Hawaii in the beginning with a bf and since I just love Hawaii I really enjoyed all the adventures there. Anyone who has ever struggled to find God and find where they fit in will totally relate to this book and love it. I highly recommend it.
